Man You Love to Hate – Live is a live album by the Irish-Englishalternative rock bandMy Bloody Valentine. It was released in 1985 on Schuldige Scheitel Productions. The album was recorded on 9 March 1985 at Sputnik-Kino inWest Berlin,Germany, as part of theAmigo Records Die Kwahl music festival, and later mixed at Sulo-Studios. The record date is incorrectly credited as "9.2.85" on the cover.[1] The album features the band's original line-up, material from their debutmini albumThis Is Your Bloody Valentine (1985) and four unreleased songs ("Scavengers", "The Devil Made Me Do It", "The Man You Love to Hate", and "A Town Called Bastard") never known to have been recorded in-studio.
Only a few hundred cassette copies ofMan You Love to Hate – Live were pressed[2] and some copies included a plastic sleeve cover with several inlays and promotional inserts. The album went out of print prior to My Bloody Valentine's underground success with their two original studio albums,Isn't Anything (1988) andLoveless (1991). Parergon Records were due to re-release a remastered version of the album on CD in 2003,[2] but it was not released until 2007.[3]
